Changing user's id data type

Is it okay to use uuid as the data type for user's id? Does it have to be text? Will that cause any problems down the line? 
export const user = pgTable("user", {
  id: uuid("id").primaryKey(),
});
export const user = pgTable("user", {
  id: uuid("id").primaryKey(),
});

You can use uuid, but it will require you to setup your own ID generator in the auth config. You can make an id generator function under advanced.database.generateId.
